LOCAL PLANTS are vital for the health of our eco-systems. Why? Partially because many insects do not eat from nor reproduce on plants that are not native. That means that the primary source of food for our birds is restricted by a decline in the insects they eat. The good news? On June 4-5, 2011 you can help raise money to support conservation and do your part to help encourage a healthy backyard eco-system.
Mass Audubon has plants that attract hummingbirds and butterflies, and plants that are almost impossible to kill! Native plants are the environmentally sound gardening choice since they are naturally found in our area; they tolerate our New England weather conditions (occasional drought, cold winters, and seasonal rains) better than other plants that may need more care.
Join us on Saturday, June 4, and Sunday, June 5, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. (while supplies last) for our eighth annual Native Plant Fundraiser. A large variety of native wildflowers, ferns, shrubs, trees and groundcover will be available for purchase. There will be 30 to 50 individual plants for sale for most species. Most plants are only $7 each, planting and growing Information will be available for all plants. Plants for sale include: Cardinal Flower, Joe Pyeweed, Wild Bergamont, Meadowsweet, Poverty Grass, Indian Grass, Spotted Horsemint, Black-Eyed Susan, Mayapple, Columbine, Jack in the Pulpit, Wild Geranium, Solomon’s Seal, Red Trillium, Yellow Trillium, White Trillium, Bird’s Foot Violet, Purple Coneflower, Christmas Fern, Maidenhair fern, Hay-scented Fern, Lowbush BlueberryBayberry, Mountain Laurel, Witchhazel, and more. All proceeds help to sustain Moose Hill’s educational programs. Bring a tray or box to transport your plants to your car.
Moose Hill is located at 293 Moose Hill St, Sharon. Please call 781-784-5691 for any details.

Every day when you mature, you will regret their natural thing to do yesterday. Ah! So you can do better. Until one day, you will not regret for yesterday, you are really mature. Left behind is a sad thing, but even more sad is not his own mind the right expression. http://www.newerafittedhat.org/
